Three of COSEHC's Cardiovascular Centers of Excellence have recently been awarded The Enhanced Dissemination and Utilization Center Grant.
COSEHC is happy to announce that 3 of its COSEHC Cardiovascular Centers of Excellence (20 Centers) have recently been awarded with The Enhanced Dissemination and Utilization Center (EDUC) grant funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Only 12 centers in the nation have received this special funding.
The goal of this NIH funding is to eliminate cardiovascular disparities and improve health care in high-risk communities.
"These projects take what we have learned about prevention, identification and treatment of cardiovascular disease and apply that knowledge where it is most needed - in communities with the highest heart disease and stroke death rates," said NHLBI Director Claude Lenfant, MD.
COSEHC Cardiovascular Centers of Excellence grant awardees:
- DRChip (Dan River Region Cardiovascular Health Initiative Program)
- Wake Forest University School of Medicine
- Wright State University School of Medicine
